  • This paper addresses the relationship between public housing tenure and social disadvantage. The research examines social capital levels among public tenants in Australia, concentrating on their level of interpersonal trust and confidence in a range of public institutions. Through multivariate analyses of national survey data it also profiles the social and political background of public housing tenants. Although public housing tenants have access to secure and affordable housing, they appear to be less trusting and 'happy' than private renters or homeowners, and exhibit less confidence in some institutions such as the Australian parliament, universities and the ABC (the Australian public television broadcaster). These results probably reflect the residualised nature of public housing in Australia and indicate that public tenants are likely to be 'alienated' from certain aspects of mainstream culture. However, public tenants have higher levels of confidence than homeowners in the Australian defence forces and trade unions. So public housing may 'shore up' confidence and social capital in some areas, and levels of trust would be lower if public housing was not available to disadvantaged citizens.

  • This paper describes a rectification procedure that relies on a polynomial model derived from the imaging geometry without loss of accuracy. By using polynomial model, one can effectively eliminate the iterative process to find an image pixel corresponding to each output grid point. With the imaging geometry and ephemeris data, a geo-location polynomial can be constructed from grid points that are produced by solving three equations simultaneously. And, in order to correct the local distortions induced by the geometry and terrain height, a distortion model has been incorporated in the procedure, which is a function of incidence angle and height at each pixel position. With this function, it is straightforward to calculate the pixel displacement due to distortions and then pixels are assigned to the output grid by re-sampling the displaced pixels. Most of the necessary information for the construction of polynomial model is available in the leader file and some can be derived from others. For validation, sample images of ERS-l PRI and Radarsat-l SGF have been processed by the proposed method and evaluated against ground truth acquired from 1:25,000 topography maps.

  • The interferometric correlation, or coherence, is calculated to measure the variance of the interferometric phase and amplitude within the neighbourhood of any location within the image at a result of SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) interferometric process which utilizes the phase information of the images. The coherence contains additional information that is useful for detecting point targets which change their location in an area of interest (AOI). In this research, a RGB colour composite image was generated with a intensity image (master image), a intensity change image as a difference between master image and slave image, and a coherence image generated as a part of SAR interferometric processing. We developed a technique performing detection of a point target movement using SAR interferometry and applied it to suitable tandem pair images of ERS-1 and ERS-2 as test data. The possibility of change detection of a point target in the AOI could be identified with the technique proposed in this research.

  • In the present study, the finite strip analysis of a box girder to simulate a ship's hull model is carried out to investigate its inelastic post-buckling behavior and to predict its ultimate flexural strength. Residual stresses and initial geometrical imperfections are both considered in the combined material and geometrical nonlinear analysis. The von-Mises yield criterion and the Prandtl-Reuss flow theory of plasticity are applied in modeling the elasto-plastic behavior of material. The Newton-Raphson iterative process is also employed in the analysis to achieve convergence. The numerical results agree well with the experimental data. The effects of some material and geometrical parameters on the ultimate strength of the structure are also investigated.

  • 본 논문은 고밀도 클러터 환경 비선형 표적에 대해서 수동소나 자동표적추적 자료결합 게이트를 강인하게 적용하기 위한 H∞ 놈 기반의 자료결합 게이트 기법을 제안한다. 표적추적을 위한 자료결합 기법은 유효 측정 범위인 유효 게이트 내에 있는 측정치를 자료결합의 후보대상으로 선택한다. 자료결합에서의 유효 게이트 범위가 적정하지 않거나 고밀도 클러터 환경에서 자료결합이 수행되면, 클러터 측정치의 간섭을 더욱 받게 되어 표적추적의 강인성을 유지하기 어렵다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서, 본 논문은 가우시안 분포 가정 및 추적 오차 공분산 기반의 기존 3-σ 게이트 기법에 H∞ 놈 기반의 이분법 알고리즘을 결합하여 적용한 새로운 게이팅 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 클러터의 간섭을 완화시키고, 비선형 기동표적을 견실하게 추적하게 한다. 해석적인 분석 방법과 수평방위 및 수직방위의 측정치를 모의한 신호를 활용한 시뮬레이션을 통해 자료결합의 강인함이 기존 기법에 대비하여 향상됨을 확인하였다.

  • In general, the number of underwater transient signals is very limited for research on automatic recognition. Data-dependent feature extraction is one of the most effective methods in this case. Therefore, we suggest WPCC (Wavelet packet ceptsral coefficient) as a feature extraction method. A wavelet packet best tree for each data set is formed using an entropy-based cost function. Then, every terminal node of the best trees is counted to build a common wavelet best tree. It corresponds to flexible and non-uniform filter bank reflecting characteristics for the data set. A GMM (Gaussian mixture model) is used to classify five classes of underwater transient data sets. The error rate of the WPCC is compared using MFCC (Mel-frequency ceptsral coefficients). The error rates of WPCC-db20, db40, and MFCC are 0.4%, 0%, and 0.4%, respectively, when the training data consist of six out of the nine pieces of data in each class. However, WPCC-db20 and db40 show rates of 2.98% and 1.20%, respectively, while MFCC shows a rate of 7.14% when the training data consists of only three pieces. This shows that WPCC is less sensitive to the number of training data pieces than MFCC. Thus, it could be a more appropriate method for underwater transient recognition. These results may be helpful to develop an automatic recognition system for an underwater transient signal.

  • Long-Term Evolution employs a hard handover procedure. To reduce the interruption of data flow, downlink data is forwarded from the serving eNodeB (eNB) to the target eNB during handover. In cellular networks, unbalanced loads may lead to congestion in both the radio network and the backhaul network, resulting in bad end-to-end performance as well as causing unfairness among the users sharing the bottleneck link. This work focuses on congestion in the transport network. Handovers toward less loaded cells can help redistribute the load of the bottleneck link; such a mechanism is known as load balancing. The results show that the introduction of such a handover mechanism into the simulation environment positively influences the system performance. This is because terminals spend more time in the cell; hence, a better reception is offered. The utilization of load balancing can be used to further improve the performance of cellular systems that are experiencing congestion on a bottleneck link due to an uneven load.

  • In river with bar, the characteristics of its physical conditions have a close relationship with bar morphology. In this paper, a monitoring approach of bar transformation in the Han River Estuary is presented using RADARSAT/SAR Images. The estuary is divided into North and South Korea and its area is blocked by CCL(Civil Control Line). Satellite remote sensing, therefore, is uniquely suited to monitoring bar transformation. Based on SAR signatures for bars, bar transformation is investigated from 2000 to 2005, and monitoring of suspended-silt transportations from terrestrial runoff is tried to understand the morphology during the events of severe rain storm. SAR data did not reveal clearly the bar locations because of most of data acquisitions during high tides from 6.8 m to 9.0 m. Even though the problem, it could be said that in the estuary vegetated area and natural levees are developed well, but bars and shifted after an event like a flood. It is also showed that suspended solids such as silt transported through the estuary could contribute highly to a sedimentation environment around Incheon.

  • Recently, the systems using multiple sensors such as magnetic, acoustic and pressure sensor are used for detection of underwater objects or vehicles. Those systems have difficulty of maintenance and repair because they operate underwater. Thus, this paper describes a hybrid detection system with long term operating reliability. This has a multi-signal transmission structure to have a high reliability. First, a signal transmission & receiving part, which transfers data from underwater sensors to land and receive control message from land through optical cable, has 4 multi-path. Second, the nodes for signal transmission are connected dually each other with single-hop construction and sensors are connected to a couple of neighboring nodes. This enables the output signal to transmit from a node to the next node and the next but one node together. Also, the signal from a sensor can be transmitted to two nodes at the same time. Therefore, the system with this construction has high reliability in long term operation because it makes possible to transmit sensor data to another node which works normally although a transmission node or cable in system have some faults.

  • 미국은 2000년대 초반부터 무기체계의 전투준비태세를 유지하면서 수명주기비용을 줄이기 위해서 TLCSM를 적용하였다. TLCSM이 적용되면서 획득단계 중심의 ILS 개념에서 전체 수명주기 동안 수명주기비용을 관리하는 개념인 IPS로 전환하였다. 또한 ILS를 개발하기 위한 LSAR은 IPS을 개발하기 위한 LPD로 전환하였다. 본 연구에서는 한국의 LSAR과 미국의 LPD를 비교 및 분석하여 LPD의 한국 도입 시 필요한 정책을 제안하였다.
